Apple Sets the Date for the iPad 2

Set the date: March 2. Apple is throwing down the gauntlet while lifting the curtain on something big. And with an invite like this, there's little doubt of what we're in store to see. An iCal page peeled back to reveal the screen to a fairly recognizable gadget.

The timing is right. Rumors have hit a fever pitch. Competition is swirling. And it's all but confirmed: Apple will be revealing the new iPad 2 on March 2.
